SG0-001 · Question #510
Which of the following is MOST likely required to have true site redundancy?
The correct answer is A. DR site in another region on a separate power grid. True site redundancy for disaster recovery (DR) requires a DR site located in a different geographical region and on a separate power grid.
Question
Which of the following is MOST likely required to have true site redundancy?

Why each option
True site redundancy for disaster recovery (DR) requires a DR site located in a different geographical region and on a separate power grid.
Locating a DR site in another region on a separate power grid ensures resilience against widespread regional disasters, such as natural calamities or major power outages, that could incapacitate a single location or shared infrastructure, thus providing true business continuity.
While HA storage arrays provide redundancy against local hardware failures, they do not protect against site-wide disasters or regional outages.
A DR site in the same city is vulnerable to localized disasters that could affect both the primary and DR sites simultaneously.
Utilizing storage arrays with SSD drives enhances performance but does not provide redundancy or disaster recovery capabilities for the entire site.
